Product introduction of black silicon carbide #24 rock tumbling media
Black silicon carbide #24 rock tumbling media is a coarse grit that works in a tumbler. It is for deburring and grinding rock, cobblestone, ceramics, metal, non-ferrous alloy, etc. The high hardness and proper grain shape ensure the tumble grinding works fast and make preparation for the next polishing steps.

Product Feature of Black silicon carbide rock tumbling media
- Good oxidation resistance and chemical stability at high temperatures.
- High hardness with Mohs 9.2-9.3. Even at 2000℃, it still gets high strength.
- Excellent toughness.
- Low thermal conductivity. So it can resistant to thermal shock.
- High purity min SiC content is 98.5%.
- High bulk density.
- Black silicon carbide grit is washed with water before the milling process, so there are few impurities.
